Hey, I seen there was no Tab with the chords from the recording of the song I find is
the best one, so I wrote them out.
 
Theres a riff into G I've put in brackets below which Basically goes from the c and then
you hit the low e string, open, then first, then second, third and then straight into G.
It's not hard, and you can see it in the video.
The acoustic version on his vevo page is the one I'm referring to.
 
As a side note to play along with it, I tuned my guitar down a half step, but you can
play it in standard tuning perfect.
 
Hope you like it, Great song.

[Verse 1]
 
F                               F Em
Saw you today after so much time
F                               F Em
Felt just like it used to be
F                               F Em
Talking for hours bout a different life
F                               F Em
Surrounding us in memories
F                               F Em
We were close never close enough
F                               F Em
Baby are we now
F                               F Em
'Cause if it's torn we can stitch it up
F           G
Don't rule it out
G
Oh no no
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Am    Em    C
I'll come around
Em      F                    F      G
If you ever want to be in love
Am   Em  C      Em      F
I'm not waiting, but I'm willing if you call me up
 G
If you ever want to be in love
Am   Em    Am

[Verse 2]
 
F                               F Em
Wanted to ask if we could have been
F                               F Em
But my tongue wouldn't break the seal
F                               F Em
You always had something effortless
F                               F Em
At school you were the biggest deal
F                               F Em
Little quirks close and open up
F                               F Em
Time is slipping by
F                               F Em
Always thinking 'bout the two of us
F            G
Replay on my mind
G
Always playing on my mind
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Am    Em    C
I'll come around
Em      F                    F      G
If you ever want to be in love
Am   Em  C      Em      F
I'm not waiting, but I'm willing if you call me up
 G
If you ever want to be in love
Am   Em    Am
I'll come around
 
Am     Em C      Em F      G
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
G
We were young we were side by side
          F                  C  (Riff to G)
Don't know when we started losing touch
G
If you want we could walk a while
           F                  C (Riff to G)
Maybe that would be enough
G
Used to talk drinking to the night
          F                  C  (Riff to G)
I would wake up on the front room floor
G
All along you'd be in my bed
F (let ring)
Make me crazy make me want you more
 
(Quiet)
 
 
[Chorus]
 
Am    Em    C
I'll come around
Em      F                    F      G (louder from here again)
If you ever want to be in love
Am   Em  C      Em      F                    G
I'm not waiting, but I'm willing if you call me up
 
Am    Em    C
I'll come around
Em      F                    F      G
If you ever want to be in love
Am   Em  C      Em      F
I'm not waiting, but I'm willing if you call me up
 G
If you ever want to be in love
Am   Em    Am
I'll come around
 
 
Am     Em C      Em F      G
Am     Em C      Em F
